Chris Mortensen "embarrassed" over exclusion of Pennington from top QBs list
If you're like me, then you really have a hard time tolerating ESPN at times. At times, it seems like they focus on just the Patriots, Cowboys, and Brett Favre - and nothing else. But that doesn't mean they don't have at least some excellent analysts/reporters. One of my favorites is Chris Mortensen.
So when I came across the following ESPN "list ranker" poll, I just had to try to get some explanation. The poll asks readers to rank the top 20 quarterbacks in the NFL from 1 through 20. It includes names like Kyle Orton, Trent Edwards, and David Garrard. One name is doesn't include is the 2008 MVP runner-up: Dolphins QB Chad Pennington.
Needless to say, I was enraged here. So I decided to use the power of Twitter to see if I could get some reaction. And indeed I did.
The conversation started with me tweeting at Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) and Adam Schefter (@Adam_Schefter). All I simply said was, "Seriously, u wonder why so many people hate on ESPN? Pennington isn't among the top 20 QBs?" I also added the link to the rankings so they knew what I was talking about.
While I haven't heard back from Schefter, Mortensen has tweeted back multiple times. Here's how the brief Twitter conversation went:
Mortensen: "You are 100 percent correct. I just looked at list. Chad Pennington has earned his way. No excuse for this. They don't ask me."
Mortensen: "In fact, I'm embarrassed Pennington was left off the list now that I read all those names."
Matty: "Appreciate your honesty here. Who makes up these things? Kyle Orton and Trent Edwards over Pennington - the MVP runner-up?"
Mortensen: "Among others. Don't know. Some "panel" of editors and writers, I guess."
And this is something I'll never understand. ESPN has at their disposal credible football minds like Chris Mortensen, Adam Schefter, John Clayton, and Ron Jaworski. Perhaps they should ask them when putting together a list like this. Or, to simplify the process, why not just go look at last season's NFL league leaders and include at least the top 15 QBs in passing yards or passer rating? At least then, you probably won't leave off the runner-up in the 2008 MVP voting.
But a "thank you" goes out to Chris Mortensen. Rather than just spew the "company line," he was open and honest about his feelings on this "oversight."

A rather laughable list actually....
I mean, Trent Edwards?

yeah him being on there makes no sense whatsoever
I’m surprised they didn’t have J.P Losman on there too. Chad should have been on there hands down

but he had it with the receiving corps that ESPN is always shitting on.

Who DIDN'T make the list:
Pennington
Clemens/Sanchez
Flacco
Anderson/Quinn
Collins
Garcia/Russell
Campbell
Culpepper/Stafford
Jackson/Rosenfels
Freeman/Simms
Bulger
Hill/Smith
Take out Edwards, Orton, and Garrard and put in Pennington, Collins, and Garcia, and that list has SOME legitimacy. Didn’t ESPN do something similar like this with ALL 32 starting QBs? I’m pretty damn sure that Pennington ranked in the top 20 if I’m not mistaken (and I’m not)

LOL. I didn’t even notice Edwards was on there (I left the page after my brain digested the first image my eyes fell on: Kyle Freaking Orton?!). Even I think it’s ridiculous that Edwards is on that list.
I know you mentioned Garrard. It’s bizarre to see Cassel there – the guy plays for the freaking Chiefs. Oh, and Matt Schaub has missed 10 games in the last two seasons; he’s hardly old reliable.

I had to watch the Chiefs play last year
Because I lived in Missouri. Tyler Thigpen was nothing short of terrific given what he had to deal with, and I hope some team (maybe even the Phins down the line) is willing to give this guy a starting job, because he certainly has the potential (and he’s much better than Matt Cassel in my mind).

That Cassel will do fine in Kansas City, seeing as they’ll be running the same New England-style offense, but it’s just a shame that Thigpen loses out.

Here's their 2008 stats
Matt Cassel
15 starts (1 very long relief appearance), 63.4 Completion %, 3,693 yards, 230.8 yds./game, 21 TDs, 11 INTs, sacked 47 times
Tyler Thigpen
14 starts, 54.5 Completion %, 2,608 yds, 186.3 yds./game, 18 TDs, 11 INTs, sacked 26 times
Hmmm, so with a much less spectacular offense, Tyler Thigpen still put up similar, if less dynamic, numbers to Matt Cassel (sorry, but a ton of passing yards mean nothing if you don’t score). And Thigpen was sacked 21 fewer times, on a team that was among the league’s worst last season.
It just seems that they should trade him if they aren’t gonna give him a chance.

But again
Cassel played with two of the top 5 receivers in the game last year, as well as a pretty good defense to support him. Few quarterbacks get that kind of early support in their careers.

All I can say is wow.
Really no Pennington? Penny has a career qb rating of 90.6
The only guys in the league with a better rating?
Brady, Manning, and Rivers.
3. Yeah 3 guys. And Brady’s is just slightly better. I can’t believe it. I just can’t. I can honestly say I wouldve been slightly shocked even if he was still with the Jets. A snub is a snub. Are you really gonna tell me that Penny isn’t better than:
-Ryan (a recent rookie)
-Schaub (who can’t finish a season)
-Garrard (who’s been nothing but a disappointment)
-E. Manning (career qb rating of 78)
-Hassleback (way past his prime)
-Cassel (seriously, MATT CASSEL? The same guy who everyone says was the sole reason the patsies didn’t win the division again?)
And these are just a few. Gosh I was pissed when I saw this. I can’t stress it enough. The only good thing about this is that now I know Im officially have no respect for that network’s nfl divison and as great as they are, there’s nothing Clayton or Mortenson can do to change that.

First off
That has nothing to do with it. This isn’t a list of people with “potential”. Its a list of performers. Cassel’s stats don’t support him being a performer when prior to last season he was a career bench warmer.
And no he won’t actually. The chiefs are an awful team and Cassel only did well because of the pats system. Why else has Belicheck not signed a veteran to backup the now much more injury susceptible Tom Brady? You really think O’connel is a “great” qb waiting to happen? No he isn’t but he would probably play well if he had to because of the pats system.

So Drew Bledsoe was only a good QB because of The Pats system?
That makes no sense. Brady performed better than Drew Bledsoe, a proven elite quarterback.
Yes, a good team will make a QB look much better, but Cassell still had great numbers for a QB. Did you ever think, just for a moment, that maybe Belichick actually learned how to spot a diamond in the rough like his mentor BILL PARCELLS?

Why do they employ all these ex football players, only to not involve them in the evaluation process of the current and or former nfl players? They ask their opinions on talk shows all day long and don’t ask them for help in formulating a list as simple as this? And to see a few of these names is downright scary. Trent Edwards? Cmon man!!!

Yes It's Ridiculous Chad's not on there, however....
Y’all should know why, considering every game Miami played last year had announcers and color guys, and that in every game at least once was said…
Chad Pennington had meant so much to the Dolphins…You don’t need a GREAT ARM to win in this league…
That’s it folks! They don’t respect or like Chad P BECAUSE of his “lack” or arm strength. PERIOD! Orton, Girard, Delhomme, and any other mediocre QB you can think of that’s on the list is on the list precisely because they have “decent” arm strength. Simply put, ESPN and the rest will forever rap Pennington’s abilities because of his “noodle arm.” We’ll just have to get over it, as stupid as it is. Even winning the SB…heck, even going undefeated!…won’t matter to these idiots.

Schefter probably didn’t answer you because he often says on twitter that he is unemployed… so im guessing he doesn’t work for ESPN anymore…
